I've tried the washing machine method (not dark enough) and the stovetop method (dye didnt penetrate perfectly, looks kind of marbled), and I've even added salt, per rit instructions. Can I re-try dyeing the tights or do I need to start over with a new pair of white? Help.
Does anyone know how to dye white capezio nylon tights to a royal blue with rit dye successfully.?
capezio reccomends using a shade darker than your desired shade. for royal, i assume it would be navy. then try the washing machine method again, and it should be all good.
if you are using any of the ultrasoft capezio (all styles except #14, 14C, 140, 140C, 145, 145C and all capezio fishnets) the salt is BAD for the fibers, and that could cause the marble look that you got on the stove.
Reply:the synthetic fibers will not take dye evenly
Reply:if you have time, you can order coloured tights from capezio. takes about a weel to ship.
